Me and my brother own a renovated Victorian property in Chesterfield. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and . I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw two entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold under the exact same address. Is it worth asking to clarify?

You should review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3).

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and found one near me in Chesterfield I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 61 years on the lease. There is not much else in Chesterfield for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a home loan the shortness of the lease will likely be an issue. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
